    Default Ehlers vs Hanifan

    I am in a deep 12 team league. We roster 6C,10W,7D and 3G. We have a minor league draft that is open to even undrafted players. After going through top available talent Ehlers and Hanifan stood out. I have the first overall pick and 13th of a 2 round draft. I am more interested in ceiling than eta. Was hoping to get some opinions. Here are my league categories +/- A DA DG G GAA GTPTS PIM PPG PTS SPCT STPTS
    16 Team League (4 Keepers keep max of three seasons) First Year of League
    Categories G A P +/- PIM PPP SHP GWG FW HITS (G Cats) W GAA SV% SO

    RW Wheeler Brouwer Downie
    D Hedman Shattenkirk Seabrook Goligoski Vatanen

    G Schneider Scrivens Tokarski

    Fantasy wise Ehlers all the way. I assume your talking about Hanifin of the 2015 class.

    Ehlers, although damn Hanifin is gonna be a good player as well. But I'll take the winger over the d-man.

    Close call. What do you need more, forward or d-man?

    I'd pick Hanifin. I think he's the better choice between the two and by the time the next draft rolls around his value will be sky high.

    I need high level performers as trade pieces. That is why I liked Hanifan and yes he is eligible in June draft and have read only McDavid or Eichel are rated higher. My league heavily rewards D-men as their assists/goals/pts count twice plus STPTS as well. I know that going to a poor team will hurt his +/- will be great on a weak team but I have read very good things about him (youngest player to ever make Boston College Varsity). I like Ehlers too but want a true high impact player.

    The defense points bonus is interesting. The only reason I still might go with Ehlers is because he's a year ahead in development, and defenders usually take awhile to really break out. So you're looking at potentially 4 years before Hanifin starts paying dividends, while Ehlers could walk in as a rookie next year and score 50 points.

    The prospects I'd definitely take over Ehlers right now:

    Drouin
    McDavid
    Eichel

    That's it.

    As for Hanifin - I'm all for stud D prospects, but they are usually too fickle and have bumpy, long waits.
